| Some notes for the Tru64 Unix 5.x port |
| ====================================== |
| |
| 1. Compiling |
| ------------ |
| |
| The following procedure has been proven to successfully compile net-snmp |
| version 5.2.2 and later on Tru64 Unix 5.1B (Alpha EV5.6) using the Compaq C 6.5 |
| compiler: |
| |
| ./configure --disable-embedded-perl |
| make |
| su - |
| make install |
| |
| A recent GNU C compiler (gcc) will probably work, too. |
| |
| Please note that the "host" module doesn't compile on Tru64, so you *cannot* |
| run configure with "--with-mib-modules=host". |
| |
| 2. Embedded Perl |
| ---------------- |
| |
| The Perl package (5.00503) shipped with Tru64 Unix 5.1 isn't complete enough |
| to allow to build net-snmp with embedded Perl support. If you need embedded |
| Perl support, do your own Perl installation first. |
| |
| 3. IPv6 |
| ------- |
| |
| Starting with net-snmp 5.4 you can enable the UDPIPv6 and TCPIPv6 transports |
| on Tru64 Unix 5.1: |
| |
| ./configure --enable-ipv6 |
| |
| There's no support for the IPv6 MIBs, though. |
| |
| |
| 4. Known problems |
| ----------------- |
| |
| "make test" is known to report the following failure: |
| |
| 59: testing full snmpwalk (SNMPv2c) against agent (may take time)... FAIL |
| |
| so it's obvious that there are still problems with some MIB modules on Tru64. |
| If you have ideas how to fix them, please let us know! |
| |
| |
| 5. Feedback |
| ----------- |
| |
| Please also see README and PORTING. |
| |
| If you have questions, additional insights or (even better) patches regarding |
| net-snmp on Tru64 Unix, please refer to the net-snmp mailing lists (see |
| http://www.net-snmp.org/lists). |
